Answer:
1- 3/4
2- 5/6
3- 2/3
4- 7/10
Step-by-step explanation:
1= a
2=b
3=c
4=d
__________
We will start with our guess of 12, since 12*2 = 24.
Divide 24 by 12; 24/12=2. Average this answer with our guess: (12+2)/2=7. This is our new guess.
24/7=3.428571429. Average this with our guess of 7: (3.428571429+7)/2=5.214285715. This is our new guess.
24/5.214285715=4.602739726. Averaging with our guess: (4.602739726+5.214285715)/2=4.90851272. New guess!
24/4.90851272=4.889464766. Averaging with our guess: (4.889464766+4.90851272)/2=4.898988743. New guess! You can see as we go through our guesses are closer and closer to the same number...)
24/4.898988743=4.898970228. Averaging: (4.898970228+4.898988743)/2=4.898979486. At this point our answer is the same every time down to the hundred-thousandth. Our estimate to the nearest hundredth would be 4.90.
Answer:
x^4 -x^3 -9x^2 -11x -4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the zero product property
(x-a) (x-b) (x-c) (x-d) where a b c d are the roots
(x- -1)(x- -1)(x- -1) ( x-4) since the root -1 is repeated 3 times and 4 is a root
(x+1)(x+1)(x+1) ( x-4)
Foil the first two terms and the last two terms
(x^2 + 2x+1)( x^2 -3x-4)
Foil again
x^4 -3x^3 -4x^2 +2x^3 -6x^2 -8x +x^2 -3x-4
Combine like terms
x^4 -x^3 -9x^2 -11x -4
Step by step solution is above
